Good times.

We're always looking for good weekend trips. Lately, we've been staying close to home because we've been pretty broke - plus we've been somewhat leary of Shawna's pregnancy and not wanted to venture too far.

One thing that's really caught our eye is St. Augustine shopping. On the last Saturday of October and November or October 27th and November 24th the city becomes a wonderland for shopping, adventure, music, and train tours.

All of the participating stores offer goodies including wine and and refreshments and you walk from shop to shop.

This is a great idea for those who are looking to do their Christmas or holiday shopping and don't want to spend a long time doing it.

You might want to head out one Saturday night with an idea of what to get your loved ones. By the end of the night you are sure to find something for the whole family.

GetAway4Florida.com offers a great website and useful information on how to have a nice Florida get away. The great thing for northerners that are interested in getting away is that Florida has great weather year round!

Plus, you can get to Florida on less than a $200 round trip ticket and it's a nice weekend getaway!

Of course, you might not want to do this on a snowy weekend because God knows they love to close the airports down these days over anything and then you'd be stuck in Florida. (Poor thing!)
